IMPERIAL BANK BUILDING KENORA ONT Some Thoughts for Consideration (Western Producer, Nov. 12th 1925) Ever since the creation of man upon this earth, the law of nature has remained uncuhanged. Nature has decreed that man shall plow, sow, and reap, on the penalty oi death should he disobey the man date of the Almighty for one brief Season. ess. of natural same all t 12 same on to gr rowth has hrough the mature er way, ot the undisturbeu and going its own plade and then the ear, by the vent of modernizing and defying the ever-increasing demand ior' speed. : 3 keyo nd the conception of some magnitude of the change chat has taken place in agricultural progress during the last century. From che walking-plow, hand-seeding, cradie and flail, to the engine-gang, seed-drill, binder and power threshing-mahine, to say nothing about the millions upon miitlions of bushels of grain that are transported from one country to an- other since the development of inter- national commerce. Can it be possible that people are consuming more? Or .s it due to the increased population? Acreage has increased possibly 500 per cent., while there are many people who are suffering from hunger. The main significance of the situation is that while the masses have concentrated in 'he cities, increasing their numbers as lustrial demands drain the ever- ing numbers of farm occupants the products of the farm have become more commercialized, due to the fael vhat non-producers outnumber pro- Jucers to a greater extent than they did previous to the invention of modern cquiprient, and those who were self- sustaining previous to industrial de- velopment are now dependent upon commercial distribution. To prove the truth of this statement all we have to do is to cet the imaginary hands of agricultural progress back one hundred vears and let other industries remuin as they are. The result would be famine. This being true, we have to acknowledge that the burden of sup- port rests on a comparatively smaller aumher, proportionately, now than it did previous to the use of modern machinery. The small farmer has been obliged to purchase modern equipment with which to compete; otherwise he would starve to death. All agree that the only farmer who can stay out of debt is the ome who uses modern methods, seasoned with economy, and lots of hard work. Thus we must agree that we have been and are un- consciously working in competition, one oh the other, one man gain- ing at the expense of his neighbour, a the same work alone that took ten men to do, unable to pay for hired help; while at the same time we are; producing without any definite idea of | what our veward shall be, but always true to tradition--more work, less pay.' The financial dependence of the farmer has nev _epinion upon which Rod and Gun A wealth of good sporting and hunt- ing reading matter leavened with a good fiction story The Way of A White Man, is contained in the December issue of Rod and Gun, the magazine of the Canadian Qutdoors which has just been published.

We are all internationally dependent apon each other. One country alone cannot determine the price of grain; competition demands that so long as there is cheaper grain in one country, others must conform io their price, and will continue to do so until a universal price agreement is establish- Tt will be readily understood that a seb value cannot be placed on agri- cultural products while competition exists, and the only way to remove competition 'is by universal organi a- tion. Each country must have a national organization of farmers, the heads of which will be represented on . an international board for the purpose of directing statistics and regulating the prices at which each country shall sell its products. Speculation and competition are allies toward the destruction of agui- cultural economics and domestic wel- fare; and so long as the reward for our labour is determined by the present system, just so long will we remain slaves, sold by auetion as our services are required. Failure has stalked the farmer all through the past ages down to the present day. With the greatest wealh the world can produce and the greatst power at his command, through lack of unity he is considered the lowest form of humanity, being dependent upon his ed. i ' dependents without a chance to demand "his rights.
